Absolutely no LTE anymore here in fontana (the tower on the cross streets of cherry and jurupa) and 3G is terrible. Getting .02-.30down and .00-.10up

-_____-

Every once in a while i get around 4-5bars on my iphone( i usually get 1-3 here) and 3G is usually 1.00-1.80down its usually only for like 2 minutes and then back to the crappy speeds so im guessing they are still testing.

1X800 slowly turning on in North Corona. Some sites are still on 1xRTT down south Corona.  Pretty excited as this will help with a lot with battery life

If you go back to September there was no LTE in LA at all. Now there is LTE everywhere. I know it is tough to be patient, but Robert has told us many times that things will start happening fast. He

B25 LTE switched on the towers between Indio and just outside Blythe on I-10, nice long stretch. Cactus City rest stop, Chiriaco Summit, Desert Center, all the way to the Wiley's Well rest area have u

Crews are probably working on the towers.

By the end of the year lte should be covered everywhere guys i dnt kno whats taking them so long tmobile is suppose to have 200 million people covered in the u.s as sprint but they have wayyyyyy more 4g lte coverage than sprint does

 

 

Tmobile is expanding faster because they already have fiber or backhaul in their towers, they just upgrade the panels and they have LTE.

 

Sprint has to run fiber to their towers and/or provide backhaul. This is one of the reason its taking a bit more time.

The same issues that have slowed most upgrades are permits, backhaul, equipment, and labor.  Backhaul is probably the largest issue that we have especially in the mountain areas.

This. A large majority of towers in San Diego are 3G approved at this point, but only a tiny fraction are LTE approved. If all or almost all of the 3G approved towers got approved for LTE, Sprint could launch it in SD.

So i went to six flags yesterday and i checked sensorly the day before to see the LTE coverage there. Looks like no one has mapped any of the park. There is a little really light purple areas so i thought that I'm not funna get lte there. But throughout the whole park i had strong LTE! My lowest speed was 6mbps down and highest was 19mbps down. The farther back you go in the park like around the ride apocalypse and batman your gunna hit the slower speeds i believe the tower is across the street from the parking lot because there is a tower there and i have full 5 bars in the parking lot. I mapped a couple dots here an there with my cousins android

Did you map it on Sensorly so now it will appear?

So here in southridge fontana the 3G is horrific. Its so bad i cant even start a speedtest without waiting 5min to locate the server then saying that the test failed. Havent had LTE in 3 weeks hopefully it gets turned back on. I barely get it in my room with 2mbps down. Its better than having .10mbps 3G

LTE at Landau and Vista Chino in Cathedral City is up!  Just mapped on Sensorly.  Interestingly as I approached the tower at Landau/30th. (not yet LTE enabled) the LTE signal continued though CDMA had already switched over.  It appears to not necessarily be the case that LTE and CDMA need to come from the same cell site.

Im pretty sure the Coachella valley should be done with 1900 mhz close to the end of the the year or definetly before the end of the first quarter of 2014 :D

I emailed sprint and they said all of riverside and san bernardino counties should be covered by the end of the year

 

 

I called about this LAST year. They initially said May/April. It's now September and I haven't seen any progress and 3G continues to be near useless at times.

 

I'm really hoping they can start speeding things up.

On a side note, I'm also wondering if the new triband phones will significantly increase reception of LTE. I know the LG G2 is supposed to be triband. I hope the Note 3 is as well.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
